Don't need a mic body right now.. but your work looks fantastic. I live just round the corner where neumann get's their mic bodies galvanized, if it helps you, I can pass by and ask them what process the do on them


courage, Nicholas
 
Would be great :)
I do believe Neumann nickel plates their brass bodies, however there might be other technology :)

Kind regards,
Andrew
 
Can you post specific details about the insert and connector?  Where are you sourcing those?

Can't wait to get mine!  Please say more runs are planned!
 
Hello,

If there going to be a second run and short body style,  I would like one or two of both.

Hi all,

Thank you so much for your patience. All nickel plated and anodised parts are returning from factory in upcoming week. Now you have to make two more steps about logo plates on wooden box:

Step 1: Choose Gold or silver color metalised  plates
Step 2.: Send me your own logo or font for your custom plate



By default I will be making gold ones. I will not glue them on boxes in case you want it. I'll just put them inside.

I will write on plates:

"For Name surname
 
[size=10pt] Made by Andriejus Aputis"[/size]

PLease send me your all requests to my e-mail ([email protected])

The connectors look great.

Did you engineer them or are they some particular product you selected as a favorite? The large format screw on connector was one of the primary things that appealed to me when your first announced your project.
 
Its a particular product made buy other supplier. I was looking for something big  :D so this was the only choice. In my opinion black Binder connector visually do not perfect fit overall view...However its a matter of taste  :p

I'll try to beadblast some of the connectors. They should better look in bodies with beadblasted matte  headbaskets.

Kind regards,
Andrew
 
Hi all,

Sorry for not posting there - was working hard with boxes. Yesterday I have received connectors from a supplier.

Hi,

However connectors will be polished nickel. Tried to beadblast one and result where not good - bead blasting removed some nickel from a surface...:)

Kind regards,
